    144Hz monitor support for ASUS ROG Strix ZX553VD (GTX 1050, Intel HD 630)

    I recently bought a ASUS ROG Strix ZX553VD (UK, TN panel version of the ASUS GL553VD as far as i understand). Today i tried to connect it to my 144Hz ASUS vq248qe, but quickly found out that the monitors HDMI version doesn't support 1080p@144Hz, and that is the only output that i have on my...

    So, i recently got a zalman zm-mic 1 as a lot of people said it was great.
